Kneeling in the wreckage of all you have lost
You shed the tears that speak of the cost
Of having become the one so lost
That wandered over so many long years
Deep into a land of forgetting
Where the only thing you had to guide
You were your fears
Losing your way
You could only sense the underground river
That run like a fault line
Beneath the surface of skin
As organs sent up their mixed messages to your heart
Which beat and beat with the skip brace thunder
Of a soul torn apart
Set adrift from its moorings
Abandoned to a wild black sea
Where storms raged
As waves grew larger
Inundating and eclipsing every thing
But the sound of the wind
Which roared and roared
Within your ears
Until the storm was spent
And then you awoke
In that tangle of wreckage
As the sun rose over a horizon
Burning clean a past
You could only leave behind
Through an encounter with the lostness
And the journey that led you
Through the dark heart of chaos
Emerging From The Dark Night
